[edit] Bib entry from Irelands VCs
Irelands VCs (up for deletion as I write this) basically contains one bibliographic entry, and it might be useful to editors of this list:
- "Irelands VC's" (ISBN 1 899243 003) Published in 1995 by the community development LTD research department. Sponsored by Department of Economic Development and the Cultural Traditions Group. Research Co-ordinator Tommy Kirkham.
I figured I'd leave it here for posterity because that article will probably not survive AfD. — mendel ☎ 17:30, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] List of 168 Irish-born Victoria Cross recipients
If any subscriber to Wikipedia know of any more VC recipients born in Ireland please add their names to this list adding their birth dates and places where born.
- The Irish Daily Star's Northern Political Columnist Dr John Coulter explores the campaign to have all 168 Irish-born Victoria Cross recipients honoured by the English Queen at a ceremony in Dublin's Collins Barracks. 12 November 2005.
[edit] Comments
It seems vaguely offensive that you refer to "the English Queen"--that's Sinn Fein talk; you could have said "Queen Elizabeth II of the UK" if you wished to keep some distance between you and her.
And it is particularly offensive that any such event would be held at [Michael] Collins Barracks. 70.19.52.19 23:25, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
